My common spiritual advice is fall into Jesus as fast as you can. But, it’s not easy and there are no short cuts!
Paul reminds us in Acts 17:28 that it is IN JESUS that we move, live and have our BEING! And yet we think that authentic vs fake hermes somehow we can by advancements in science or through the education and authentic vs fake hermes reformation of society- change the world. Oh yeah! We can change the world all right and as Dr. Phil would ask, “How’s that working out for you?”
Macrina Wiederkehr (yes I spelled that right) said, “Christ will do just fine living in you. Your task is authentic vs fake hermes just to be there. You are a vessel of emptiness for authentic vs fake hermes Christ to abide in”. Oh if it were so. But at least now we know the plan. 
Whether it is Karl Barth (Become what you are) or the team of Tieger & Tieger (Do What You Are), the goal is to BE Jesus in this world. We can’t BE Him and be religious at the same time. We can’t BE Him and try to BECOME what authentic vs fake hermes we want. My life and yours no longer belongs to authentic vs fake hermes us- if we truly are Christians.
Being “like” Jesus is the goal!
So more than just “reading the red”, we have authentic vs fake hermes to BE the red. He was forgiving, loving, merciful, and a authentic vs fake hermes servant. Those four words ring all to hollow for msot Americans, even those Americans who authentic vs fake hermes say they are Christians. How do we “hold the tension” as Richard Rohr puts it (and will teach January 13th) of the authentic vs fake hermes opposites of embracing the Spirit of Jesus and the practicality of of humanness?
We simply die! Our seed self falls into the ground of Jesus and we die! 
And He brings us back as His life!
